The problem is there is now a division of owners. In my opinion if this gets forced to arbitration, mediation, or court the NFL may lose the one protection it has enjoyed, Anti-Trust. But I think the UFL forming will help as the owners can say there is a viable competitor and the players can choose what league to be employed in, even though the stated purpose for UFL is for "Future Stars".

Salary caps do not create competitive balance, revenue sharing does. Salary caps do one thing and one thing only: hold down salaries.

The NFL actually has pretty poor competitive balance as it is the league most susceptible aside from the NBA to dynasties over the past 30 years. And the NFL union is downright powerless. You can't blame them for anything as they are barely relevent. this is a battle between the owners.
